Sunday



I thought I'd do a post this morning because folks in Florida are wondering!
(And I may head north VERY early tomorrow.)

It's cold and sunny!

I tried, without success, to catch a glimpse of the Leonid Meteor Shower.


  • Sunday: Partly sunny with the chance for snow or rain showers. Snow or rain showers likely south of route 20. Mostly sunny for the north country. High 42
  • Sunday night: Mostly cloudy with snow showers. Low 26
  • Monday: Mostly cloudy with snow showers likely. High 39 Low 23

Sangerfield's snow plows made their first appearance on Friday......


not the best day to start a paving project on W. Bacon Street!
(It's rough - as are a few places on Babbott Avenue, too - so drive slowly!)


This is what it looked like yesterday morning. We had about three inches of new snow - but that didn't seem to be bothering the Gallaghers' cows, who were happy licking grassickles!


The willows on Osborn were grand ........


and Sumac on Bogan caught my eye......


... as did this golden Larch.


Then the usual field - filled with a different flock of Canada Geese.

"Tyler's Barn"



View from "Livingston Hill."


Marilyn Maine was putting the finishing touches on decorations at Dan's Woodworking Shop on Madison Street. She was laughing, and explained that she'd said to him, "It's always freezing when we do the decorations at the shop: let's do it a week EARLY this year!"



The Copes' home on White Street is decorated ...........


............. as is Foodking, where the Women's Club was having a Bake Sale. I stopped at their table and came directly home to enjoy my purchases!

One more thing: I pulled through the Post Office Parking Lot to admire the brightly painted windows at the P.O. and asked one of the Dollar General employees who was outside taking a cigarette break if they'd be open on "Black Friday." I was told .........

"MONDAY MORNING!"

About the Post Office Windows

A clever and colorful reminded that the Post Office is a good place to find gifts ALL year 'round! According to Mrs. Bocko, "The concept and preliminary design work came from the imagination of Amanda Bawarski with assistance from Kate McLane. Painters included Kyle Nasypany, Emily Plourde, Briana Cowen, and Kate McLane."

Cheers!
